====The Village of Hermosillo==== On September 5, 1828, by decree no. 77 of the H. Legislature of the State of the West, the name ''Villa del Pitic'' was deleted and the name of the ''City of Hermosillo'' was imposed, in honor of the general [[Jalisco|jalisciense]] José María González de Hermosillo who in the late 1810s had carried the task of the national insurrection to lands [[Sinaloa|Sinaloenses]], then part of the Western State as well. On March 12, 1831, the State of [[Sonora]] was founded and Hermosillo was its first capital from 14 May of that year to May 25, 1832, when the capital powers were transferred to the city of [[Arizpe]]. In 1837, the city was erected at the head of the district of its name. On the same date, Don Pascual Iñigo began the construction of the Chapel of Our Lady of Carmen. On October 14, 1852, in the city, a section of filibusters under the command of [[Gaston de Raousset-Boulbon|Gastón de Raousset-Boulbon]] faced and defeated the national forces, who were under the leadership of General Miguel Blanco de Estrada; this was part of a revolutionary campaign of independence that was intended however to turn [[Sonora]] and [[Lower California]] into colonial territories of France. However, Raousset remained only a few days in the city, choosing to go to [[Guaymas]] to continue his campaign where he would eventually be defeated by General José María Yáñez Carrillo in Battle of Guaymas in 1854. On May 4, 1866, under [[Second Mexican Empire|the Second Mexican Empire]] of [[Maximilian I of Mexico|Maximilian of Habsburg]], republican troops commanded by the general {{ill|Ángel Martínez (soldier)|lt=Ángel Martínez|es|Ángel Martínez (militar)}} attacked and seized the city, which was being defended by [[Second Mexican Empire|the Second Mexican Empire]] under Colonel María Tranquilino Almada. However, a few hours later, it fell back into the hands of the forces of the Second Empire. On November 13, 1866, General Martinez again took the city in blood and fire, causing the imperialists to flee; but they returned and regained it eight days later. In 1879 Hermosillo was once again the headquarters of state powers, thanks to the management of the acting governor Don Francisco Serna, at least on an interim date. However, when the new Political Constitution of the State of Sonora was issued on September 15, 1917, it was definitively confirmed that the city of Hermosillo is the headquarters of the state powers, as referred to in article 28 thereof.<ref>'[http://www.hermosillo.gob.mx/?sel-3 Sherillo's Town Hall – Visitors]</ref> On November 4 in front of the wooden station of [[Sonora]], dozens of people gathered at the opening of the Guaymas-Hermosillo railway section. On the train came Don Carlos Rodrigo Ortiz Retes, accompanied by the commander of the Military Zone, brigadier Colonel José Guillermo Carbó. Months later, both cargo and passenger service would be established between [[Guaymas]] and the [[Nogales (Sonora)|Noals]].
